The greatest of them
All is the mighty waterfall.
Every animal bows to him in
The morning
And the evening, with his
roaring water and mighty
Drop. Even the smallest
barnacle bows to
him. He rarely speaks,
but when he does, he says,
“Beware
creatures, someday strange
men will
come to you.”
By Ana Maria, 3rd grade
